Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1961 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II Drophead Coupe, one of 107 produced, was originally commissioned by Ole Holta with unique features like a tachometer and altimeter. It underwent a cosmetic restoration in the 1980s, preserving its Beige Connolly leather, but shows some age in certain areas. While retaining its original engine and special features, it has been upgraded with a modern radio receiver.

The presence of an Alpine satellite radio receiver, while functional, deviates from the original specifications, indicating modifications. The recorded kilometers likely since restoration and the preserved original leather suggest a well-maintained but not flawless state.
